Rollover accidents are some of the most dangerous types of collisions. These accidents involve large, heavy vehicles that disrupt traffic patterns and cause harm to other drivers and pedestrians. Victims often feel the lingering effects of a rollover accident through their severe personal injuries, damaged property, and psychological trauma. If you were a victim in a rollover accident, you might be entitled to collect financial compensation and other recoverable damages.
A Lehigh Acres rollover accident lawyer from the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine will develop a case on your behalf. Our team of lawyers will work at your side as we uphold justice and build a case that defends your interests. We will go the extra mile as we investigate the accident, collect evidence, establish a liable party, and negotiate with any relevant parties for you. We will also go after any forms of financial compensation that you may be eligible to recover.
Establishing a Liable Party and Building a Case
Rollover accidents often involve commercial drivers who operate large, cargo-bearing vehicles such as semi-trucks and trailers. In rollover accidents involving commercial vehicles, some specific laws and regulations may govern the outcome of your case. A lawyer from our firm will look at these laws and others as they establish liability for your crash.
Reckless and irresponsible driving behaviors are often grounds for pinning liability on a party involved in a rollover accident. However, our legal team will often conduct a thorough investigation of an accident to determine who was liable for damages. Some potential forms of evidence that we may collect after a rollover accident include:
- Driver records
- Maintenance records
- Phone records
- Photos
- Videos
- Witness testimonies
- Police reports
- Weather conditions
- Road conditions
While one or more pieces of evidence can quickly shed light on the cause of a rollover accident, some risky behaviors can make liability even clearer. Many large commercial vehicle drivers work long shifts for many consecutive hours. These long shifts can lead to drowsy driving, which is dangerous for many reasons.
Drug impairment and alcohol intoxication are also significant risk factors for rollovers and similar accidents. Large commercial vehicles have a much higher chance of rolling over when their drivers fail to abide by strict safe operating procedures. If you or a loved one suffered harm to a drunk or drug-impaired driver, you have the right to pursue a just outcome.
A Lehigh Acres rollover accident lawyer from the Law Offices of Anidjar & Levine will defend your legal position after an accident. Our team will keep you in the loop as we communicate with other parties related to your case on your behalf. We will collect evidence, identify a liable party, and pursue justice for you and your loved ones.
As part of our defense of your rights, we will also go after any forms of recoverable damages and financial compensation that you may qualify to collect for your losses. This may include both current and future expenses, as well as non-economic damages such as mental anguish.
Interpreting Relevant State, Local, and Federal Laws
As with any other type of car accident, rollover accidents are subject to a complex patchwork of state, local, and federal laws. A lawyer who focuses on rollover accident cases from our firm will take each type of law into account as they investigate your accident and build your case. Some state-specific laws may impact your ability to get started with legal counsel, so it helps to be aware of them.
For example, the statute of limitations in Florida Statute § 95.11(3)(a) allows you limited time to take legal action after an accident resulting in a personal injury. While it may seem tempting to wait to take legal action after an accident, waiting too long may leave you with no options.
